‘Outrageous, irresponsible and reckless’: Victoria to give public servants $5,600 bonus

Sky News host Chris Kenny slams the Victorian government for announcing public servants will receive a $5,600 bonus paid for by the taxpayer. “Public servants in Victoria are getting a cash bonus … everybody is feeling the cost-of-living crunch, but taxpayers have to shunt more to state government so they can give a bonus to their very securely employed public servants,” Mr Kenny said. “Outrageous, irresponsible and reckless, isn’t it? The Reserve Bank Governor Michele Bullock was calling out government spending just the other week.”
